BASIC PROGRAMMING
The Wireless Commercial Keypad must be put into programming mode prior to any of the programming steps
below unless otherwise indicated. The keypad backlight will remain on if the product is in programming mode.
While in programming mode, if an invalid code is entered, an error tone will sound, but the keypad will remain in
programming mode. After 60 seconds of inactivity, the keypad will exit the programming mode. The 6-digit
Master Code is used to prevent unauthorized access to the system. A Master Code is required (factory default
code: 888888) to operate the Wireless Commercial Keypad. It is highly recommended to change and record your
unique Master Code.
Set Master Code
Program a PIN
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate or door:
• ALWAYS keep remote controls out of reach of children. NEVER permit children to operate or play with
remote controls.
• Activate gate or door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted, and there are no obstructions
to door travel.
• ALWAYS keep gate or door in sight until completely closed. NEVER permit anyone to cross path of moving
gate or door.
